i understand the valuable message that the author wanted to portray through this story. however, it was very hard to read as i felt like there was a lot of romanticism of abuse. the tone of the book made me uncomfortable. it almost felt like a love triangle book more than anything because of how far the severity of abuse was reduced. i was also bothered by how the “token” gay character was copied straight off a stereotype.

the worst part was the lack of trigger warning/s. i can't imagine it being a good read for a lot of people purely because of this.
